For scientific questions regarding the content of individual data sets, please direct your inquiry to the institution that has created the data set. A listing of the institutes is found on the Participating Models webpage. To contact individual scientists at those institutes please consult the Participants webpage.

Forcing Data

To ensure an accurate intercomparison experiment, and to eliminate ambiguities in interpretation of model results, it is necessary to force and validate all models in as similar a manner as possible. To this end, we have collected and created a variety of standardized model forcing data sets:

For bathymetry, we have created a global merged data product that blends the International Bathymetric Chart of the Arctic Ocean data with the Earth Topography Five Minute data (Holland, 2000).
